Commercial Metal Cladding from a Specialist Contractor
Metal cladding is a functional, robust and aesthetically pleasing type of material that is suitable for most types of commercial or industrial property. Metal cladding panels are often manufactured from aluminium or steel, to which it is especially important to consider the pros and cons of each material prior to installing.

Signs Your Cladding Needs Replacing or Overcladding
Most commercial and industrial roof cladding problems develop over time without you even knowing about it. By the time the problems become noticeable inside the building or with a visual inspection, the issues have been there for a while.
If your building shows any of these signs, a site survey is the best starting point to resolving them.
- Visible corrosion, delamination or cut edge corrosion on roof sheets
- Water ingress or damp patches on internal walls or ceilings
- Draughts, condensation and failing insulation
- Discolouration and staining on wall panels
- Asbestos cement sheets becoming friable or brittle
Overcladding vs Strip and Renewal
Overcladding or stripping and renewing cladding are the two most common solutions to most metal roof sheet problems. Each serves a different situation so it’s worth knowing which is best for your problem.
Roof Overcladding
We’ll install a new cladding system directly over your existing roof without the need for stripping. This is faster and creates less waste, as well as causing minimal disruption to your site. This is a good option when your existing roof structure is sound but the surface cladding has degraded or contains asbestos.
Strip and Renewal
For this we’d completely remove your existing roof sheets and then fit new cladding. This approach works best where your roof’s existing deck or structure is compromised or you need a significant upgrade to your insulation.
We’re experienced in both types of solution. We’ll confirm which is right for your roof after your free site survey.

Our Promise
As a member of the NFRC our clients can also take advantage of a Co-partnership warranty. This independent warranty covers workmanship and materials and is insurance backed. Therefore in the event of a problem the contractor returns within the time period to complete any repairs.
In the case of a material failure the manufacturer replaces the faulty material and compensates the contractor for his labor. In the event of either being forced into liquidation/receivership the insurance company (QANW) fulfils the warranty
